SINGHESHWARSTHAN |
|
Barah Puran has
a story as follows:-Once upon a time Lord Shiva went to a forest called SIesh Atmak and
told Nandishwar that he should not divulge to anybody where he had gone. Lord Indra with
Lord Brahma, and Lord Vishnu went to Mount, Munjwan and asked Nandishwar where Lord Shiva
had gone. As Nandishwar did not tell them of Lord Shivas whereabouts, these three
gods went to the Slesh Atmak forest in search of him. Their Lord Shiva took the form of
a deer. Recognizing him, they ran to catch hold of him. Indra caught the front portion of
tile horn of the deer, Brahma its middle portion, and Lord Vishnu caught the root. The
horn broke into three pieces and the deer disappeared. Then they heard a voice from the
heaven addressed to them to the effect that they would not be able to find Lord Shiva and
that they were to rest satisfied with the portion of the horn in their hands. |
